Bienvenido a nuestro albergue...

HI Little Rock at the Firehouse Hostel & Museum is a 36-bed hostel and firefighting museum housed in a renovated, historic firehouse in beautiful MacArthur Park in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. The hostel is also in the heart of America; the perfect stopover for cross-country road trips and a destination as the first and only hostel in Little Rock as well as one of the only hostels in the world that also serves as a museum.

HI Little Rock at the Firehouse Hostel & Museum is centrally located near several parks and the Arkansas River Trail for recreation and nature enthusiasts as well as walking distance to restaurants, nightlife, and popular attractions including the River Market, Clinton Presidential Center, and SoMa District. Greyhound, Amtrak, and Megabus stations, as well as the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, are just minutes away and a bus stop is conveniently located just in front of the hostel.

I thought it was a very good place to stay the only thing I didn’t like was the building was a little bit too warm but they said that it was set for winter temperatures if I know it was like 54° outside other than that it was really a nice place to stay

Kudos to staff, whom I understand are actually stipended volunteers--and especially to Mark--for dealing with an inappropriate female guest who was clearly using illegal substance(s) while saying at hostel. None of us sharing women's dorm with her could sleep. Apparently she'd been there several nights before I arrived on July 12. She'd been up all night each night, pacing and talking to herself. Then on July 13 she apparently met someone on porch and must have done a drug deal then taken something because she crashed while in the toilet. When I reported this to Mark (and he found 2 other women had moved into other rooms during the night) he confronted her and got her to leave. Otherwise I would have been forced to call police, which I was reluctant to do for sale of hostel. Unfortunately i learned other women who stayed there earlier in the week had bad experiences and one, new to hosteling, left and drove away during her first night. (July 12) after paying for 2 nights. I strongly suggest you and Little Rock hostel reach out to all female guests whose stays overlapped with this particular woman's stay and offer apology and maybe refunds. Thanks Marti Scheel, life member from New Orleans.

Aeropuerto

Bill & Hillary Clinton Airport – Rock Region Metro has a bus stop at the Offsite Shuttle area. Cross the crosswalk at Exit D. The bus stop is located near the curve in the road to the side of the covered area. Look for the gray Rock Region METRO sign/ pole for the #20-College Station/Airport bus. Ask the driver to let you off at the 9th & Ferry St. After exiting the bus cross the street and walk through the park to the hostel. If you don’t mind a little extra time feel free to continue on the bus to the River Cities Travel Center and transfer to #6–Granite Mountain bus that stops in front of the hostel! This might be the way to go for added convenience if you are carrying heavy luggage or multiple bags.

Bus

Greyhound Bus Station –Located just across the river in North Little Rock at 118 E Washington Avenue. Both the #18–McAlmont and #7–Shorter College buses serve this stop. Cross the street after exiting the station and turn left. Look for the gray Rock Region METRO sign / pole close to the red light (across the street from National Pawn Shop). Ask for a transfer upon boarding then transfer to the #6–Granite Mountain bus at the River City Travel Center; it stops just in front of the Hostel!

Ferrocarril

For guests arriving via Amtrak’s Texas Eagle we are only 2 miles away from the station. A Yellow Cab is often waiting for passengers so you typically don’t have to call. Uber is usually available as well. Unfortunately all train arrivals occur at night when the city bus is not in service.
